https://laurellit.com -
I guess these chapters focus on the hypocrisy of the rich. That’s what I get from it; also, they’re superficial. But does that mean that Anna and Vronsky’s love is also superficial? The jury is still out. Anna struggles to answer Alexey’s letter I tried to love him But he’s split my soul in twoContinue Reading

Sara Orne Jewett was a turn-of-the-century novelist, poet, and short fiction writer, known especially for emphasizing nature and descriptions of coastal Maine in her work. Two pieces she is most well known for are: A White HeronandThe County of Pointed FirsIn The County of Pointed Firs, Jewett inserts throughout a dueling yet complementary sense of loss and perseverance. The rural town setting of coastal Maine drives the piece, and the environment is as harsh and unforgiving as it is b [...]
